Peggy,
I am so sorry to hear about Ben. I really enjoyed having dinner 
with  the both of you at our 40th HMHS Reunion, and getting
to know him. I was hoping I might get to see you both again
at our 50th. Ben was a truly great guy and will be missed by
all who knew him. May the Lord give you  strength during this very difficult time.  You are in my prayers.

Dear Peggy and the Chilton Family:
My deepest sympathies for your loss. Ben was a wonderful colleague here at NC State. He was smart, funny, highly motivated and dedicated to this university.  He always found a way to make me smile!  He will be missed by so many of us.  You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Peggy,

How I would love to be in church with you right now, honoring my friend Ben.  I will be back as soon as I can.

Peggy,

I am deeply saddened for you.  Ben was such a great friend to my parents (Ann & Henry Mays).  I have enjoyed hearing the tales of your travel adventures.  Like Ben, I too share a love of photography.  I am thankful for the memories he captured behind the camera.  I know that you and my parents have many travel adventures ahead.  While Ben will be missed, I am confident that he would want you to continue to travel and enjoy all of God's beauty.  

My sincere condolences and prayers go out to you.  

Love (and Hugs),
Barbara Appling

Dear Peggy, I was so sorry to hear about Ben. I will always remember how kind he was and how talented a carpenter he was. i always will think of him and treasure the wooden flower box he made for me. You are in my prayers.

I was so sorry to read of Ben's death. I knew Ben when he was the development officer for the NCSU College of Natural Resources and I was an associate dean of the NCSU Graduate School. I remember him not only as a consummate professional but also as a fine person: thoughtful, generous, and gracious. You have my deepest sympathy for your loss.

Peggy,

Ben was a great boss.  I will miss him.
He always treated everybody with great respect and always made people feel special.

I remember Ben from my work in the payroll department at the paper mill in Brewton, Alabama.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Peggy, I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Ben at the College and remember him fondly. Prayers are sent your way!!!

Ben's gentle spirit, love of nature, warm and easy going personality is part of what made him such a wonderful friend.  I will miss him deeply and think of him often.

My prayers are with you all.
